I went down to the Sanford pit Saturday to see if the snow was gone and noticed the property is posted. I have talked with owners for some years now and gave him a call to see what was up. The last big storm we had knocked some trees down which are hung up by others. He asked to have people stay out till he can have the place cleaned up and safe once again. Hopefully this wont take long. So until further notice Sanford pit is CLOSED.
Rare Wintertime rock collecting treat! It was almost 50 degrees today in Maine. A nice day to do a little mineral prospecting over at Mt. Apatite in Auburn, ME. Chad and Patrick got some good practice perforating the frost about a foot down on the dump piles.
